An interesting observation:

"At that time, ensuring maximum CPU utilization was not so important, since you’d typically be bound by other things, but things like disk speed has improved dramatically in the last 10 years while CPU speeds have not."

I'm going to quibble with that observation. CPUs HAVE improved dramatically in the past 10 years. It just doesn't look dramatic if your comparison point is storage speed.
